This update delivers some notable performance improvements for filter rendering, saving and moving paths (with a live path effect), and the measure tool. Download Inkscape 0.92.4 packages here: https://inkscape.org/release/ The key improvements in this version will enable Inkscape users to do or experience the following: * Align multiple objects as a group relative to a single object * Write image data to standard output * Experience extensions working faster within complex documents * See improved speed when deselecting a path with many nodes * Ungroup text elements won’t result in changed font size of children * Able to print and / or print correct paper size with printers (especially Canon, EPSON, Konica Minolta) * See improved performance of the measure tool when grids are visible * See proper opacity of partially transparent embedded bitmap images in PDF export * Able to Shift/Ctrl-click on control handles of shapes without crashing * Build Inkscape with up-to-date poppler library 0.72.0 – useful for Mac users building with Homebrew Translation and documentation updates ------------------------------------- The Icelandic and Brazilian Portuguese user interface (UI) translations have been updated. Inkscape’s Ukranian and Hungarian documentation translations have also been revised in this version. Join an Inkscape project team ----------------------------- There is always room for developers, especially those who can help with the following: * Package version 0.92.4 for Mac * Prepare the upcoming Inkscape 1.0 to be usable on MacOS * Help with programming a great UI for some of the new features in 1.0 * Help fix bugs and implement new features * Wrangle Python Head here https://inkscape.org/contribute/ to find out more about joining the ranks. Inkscape is always happy to welcome new contributors to help complete documentation and other elements of the project that are translated into many different languages. The project is seeking support with interface, documentation and other content translation. If you would like to contribute, head to https://inkscape.org/contribute/translations/ Another great way to help Inkscape is through Vectors, who are the marketing, outreach, and promotion team for Inkscape. Designers, artists, marketers, writers, and anyone enthusiastic about bringing Inkscape to more people in more places, is welcome to join. Inkscape alpha version 1.0 seeking testers ------------------------------------------ As the project advances towards an alpha release of version 1.0, the Inkscape teams are seeking developers interested in testing the alpha ahead of release. Download 1.0 alpha at: https://inkscape.org/release/inkscape-1.0alpha0/ Report new issues in Inkscape's Inbox: http://inkscape.org/inbox Watch Inkscape.org https://inkscape.org/ and social media channels for the latest details on the progress of the 1.0 development work. Mac OS: Inkscape needs your help -------------------------------- As few Inkscape volunteer developers use Mac, the project needs someone who knows how to automatically package a .dmg file, to enable Mac users to test the alpha version, along with Mac equipment to run continuous integration jobs. If you're interested in working on this, please introduce yourself on one of our discussion channels, and keep an eye out for other Mac volunteers to work with on this important task. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Shlomi Fish http://www.shlomifish.org/ Parody of "The Fountainhead" - http://shlom.in/towtf When Chuck Norris orders Pizza, it arrives before he presses the OK button. — http://www.shlomifish.org/humour/bits/facts/Chuck-Norris/ Please reply to list if it's a mailing list post - http://shlom.in/reply .
